I am currently looking at a few laser or light accessories for the Ruger LCP. I guess right off I should ask for feedback on even placing a laser or light on this weapon.
Some background, the only weapon I have ever had a light or laser on has been my AR's (Personal Preference). So adding a light to a pistol, much less a pocket micro pistol is a big change for me. Given the choice, Laser or Light?
Here's what I've been looking at so far...
1. Crimson Trace Laserguard
2. Veridian Laserguard Green Laser
3. Veridian Laserguard Light
4. Lasermax laser
All of which are molded to the shape of the pistol and attach to the trigger guard. Veridian seems to be the only brand that offers the light option. Most of the other brands offer either red or green lasers. Unfortunately there's no option for a laser and light combo yet (my luck it will come out the day I purchase one or the other).
So, is a laser/light really necessary on a pocket pistol? Does it give you an advantage that would be worth adding it to the pistol? Anyone with experience on this firearm and accessory, please chime in!
Thanks in advance.
